THE administration of justice, with all the complicated machinery of the courts and their elaborate and even CT ratio contingent jurisprudence, IS a very expensive function in our system ot government. From the moment of the commission of Q crime to the final dls- charge of the criminal by jury or the prison authorities, there is continual bill of expense upon the taxpayers. In an epidemic of crime, for oitenses arainst the laws seem to ebb and now like the tides, the cost of this highly inn portant adjunct of civilization sweils to snch gigantic proportions that doubts are sometimes expressed ii the game Is worth the powder. For instance, horse worth nossibly fifty or seventy-five dollars, IS stolen; pursuit of the thief is made by the law officers, based upon warrant for his arrest, and if caught there IS a tedious routine of proceedings that, the perils of petit jury and the laches of the law having been safely passed, finally lands him in the prison to rest and re cuperate for season and prepare toi another raid upon the property or the life of the peaceful community. This ras,,lt ia seldom obtained without the expenditure of sum of money equal tc ten or twenty times the value ot tht stolen animal, and the question thei presents itself forcibly: would it not b more economical and equally benetcia in A moral sense, if the victim of tn larceny was indemni6ed out of the put lie funds and the thief given ticket-oi leave with the alternative penalty of
 life sentence at hard labor, or worse The difficulties attending convictio are so numerous and formidable that tn most direct proof of crime is not alway sufficient, particularly when shrewd an experienced lawyers exceed the limit duty and become accessories after th fact in conspiring to evade the just pun ishment prescribed by the law. Or system of dealing with criminals posses es many very good and some highly a surd features, and it needs to be r adjusted by eliminating the objectio
 able portions. The grand and trail ju ies are among the recognized absurditie and a bench of review whose decision
 final and to whom the records in ever case shall be submitted, would add gres ly to the sure, swift and impartial a ministration of justice, and these I forms would likewise lessen the burd
 of expense attached.

Major A. E. Miltimore will leave for San Carlos in the morning for the pur- pose of examining into and making plans and specifications for buildings for the military post now established there. There will be thirty buildings in all in cluding, quarters for three troops of cavalry, two companies of infantry, stables, hospital, field and line offices, as well as corrals The entire cost of these buildings will be from S150,00 to $200, 900.

THE tone of President Cleveland's mes sage to Congress has clearly defined the issues of the coming campaign and al- most as clearly designated the candidates for presidential honors. Committed to the free trade doctrine, MT. Cleveland has made it next to impossible for the democrats to nominate any one else than himself, even though a large min ority of that party do not favor free trade. Nat urally enough, the issue foreshadowed brings forward Republican candidate whose tariff principles are known to every voter, and James G. Blaine will enter into another contest with Mr. Cleveland, upon the protective tariff issue. An ex- citing campaign will be result, with new watchwords and battle cries, and the re- suit will determine the wearisome but highly important problem. It will be a hard fight without any doubt, for MT. Cleveland enters it with the prestige of a good record and well organized army oi federal officials whose personal welfare is the stronger incentive to labor for the maintenance of their party's supremacy while Mir. Blaine hopes to add to the Republican forces portion of the oppo sition who do not subscribe to the fret
 trade doctrine.

 THE bill to be introduced by Senator Stewart for photographic survey of all public lands susceptible of irrigation, with a view to the construction of stor- ace reservoirs and canals, is the begin ming of progressive system of internal improvements that will ultimately benefit the arid regions of the west beyond the ability of man to conceive at the present time. It is a wise movement and one that should commend itself to the intel- ligens lawmakers at Washington. The government can well afford tc place its lands that are now utterly worthless, in to a condition by which their value is SC greatly enhanced that they will be eager ly sought after for agricultural purposes and the outlay thus incurred will be re turned many fold by increased sales anc the benefits it will derive from the dens' settlement that will follow. The peopl' of Arizona are particularly interested il this measure and will watch its progres through Congress with more than ordin ary anxiety.

HARPER, the late president of the late Fidelity Bank in Cincinnati, has been adjudged guilty of swindling and has been sentenced to ten years in the peniten- tiary. An affecting scene followed the pronouncing of the sentence, when the wife took her farewell of the felon; but the anguish his evil deeds has carried into his own home does not begin to equal the sorrow they have brought to the homes of hundreds of the unfortunate depositors with the Fidelity bank.

A Boston dispatch says an eastern me

A Boston dispatch says an eastern met al firm has offered to take the entire pro- duction of all the copper mines in this country, except the Calumet & Hecla, for the ensuing year for 15a cents per pound. The syndicate apparently intends buy ing every ton of copper in the market until the price reaches $50 per ton. The extraordinary advance in iron in Glas- gow during the last three days has, ac- cording to arivate cables, the effect of rousing the speculative spirit in such an extraordinary pitch that it is naturally having great effect on all subsidiary metals all over the world.

Asperset.

Another new grass is brought out by a Nevada ranohman. Should it be true that this grass will grow better "without water than with, we will want ship load of seed Drought over" The Car son Appeal reports that Herman Spring meyer, a Carson Valley rancher, Is buy ing hillsldes in Douglas county on which he proposes sowing a new forage plant, known in Germany as 'asperset." Mr
 Springmeyer says: It IS plant which looks like clover, and grows about eigh- teen inches thigh. I am convinced by actual experience that it will grow on the rankest and barreuest hillsides in this State. You can cut two crops year. Ii is considered much better than alfalfa in Germany. It fattens cattle faster and makes cows give better milk. No one in Germany would think of using alfalfa when he could get asperset. l took up consiperable land It was all hillY, bar zen land that no one else wanted prob ably, but once let this forage plant get 8 foothold here and every foot of that lanC will be in demand. It will make all O. | these hills green. The dryer the soil the better. It fourishes among the rock and limestone formation seems best for it I have sent to Germany for more seed It is the coming plant for cattle ant horses, and stockmen can get rich her in Nevada if they have no water It will not grow in moist land; too mucI moisture kills it. The hotter and drye the season the better. Our dry climat is exactly suitable for it, and the ranch CTS will not be long finding out what

 successful growth of this plant, but Neva

AS A FILIBUSTER.
MORE OF The LIFE OF KISSAHE

New YORK, April "A gray-bearded
sailor, who has seen much adventure in
South America, told World reporter yes
terday about Kissane's career. in Nicara-
qua.
I'm the summer of 1856" he said, Il
was one of William Walkers Army of Fill
ibusters in Nicaragua, and was stationed
at Granada. A man who gave his name as
William Rogers came down on steamer
from New York and Joined Walkers little
army. He was made assistant quartermas-
ter, or assistant commissary, l forgot
which, but he did not occupy the compar-
atively humble position long. He was
smart as a steel trap and was
well educated. He had not been
long in the army before he told
Walker that he was William Kissane, the
noted forger, The filibusterer did not turn
from him on that account. On the con-
trary, he was glad to have such bright,
energetic, pushing man as Kissane about
him. 1t soon became known to dozen or
more of us that Rogers was Kissane the
forger, but his identity was not generally
known throughout the army. In the fall
Of 1856 Walker assumed the government Of
Nicaragua and organized his cabinet. The
members of it were all natives, mere figure
heads.
THE REAL CABINET MINISTERS ..
were Walkers shrewd men whom he ap-
pointed nominally assistants to the minis
tiers. He made Rogers Assistant Secretary
of Hacienda, in which his duties were
those of Secretary of the Treasury. He
was great help to Walker and without
him think the filibusteTs would have col
lapsed much sooner. What sort of hook
ing man was he? About ! feet 10 inches
high, slenderly built but active and wiry
as a cat. He was a fine horseman. His
complexion was cross between light
and dark and his. hair was
dark brown. He wore little
if any beard and should say that his age
in 1859 was something between 25 and 30
years. There was nothing particularly no.
ticeable in his features save that he had a
very active, alert expression. When
Walker marched to 0rivas he left Grenada
in charge of Gen. Charles F, Hennigsen
and Rogers, or Kissane. Hennigsen was
brave honorable man and made war in an
open manner. But Rogers great achieve
ments consisted in sudden sallics in the
neighboring haciendas. He
WOULD CAPTURE THE WIVES AND DAUGH-
.EERS
of prominent Nicarguans and hold them
as hostages to he exchanged tor 50 much
money or provisions.
"Many of the women he captured thus
complained of the most dreadful treatment
at his hands. Rogers always avoided hard
fighting. Once Slennenger tried TO have
him take charge of our outpost, but Rogers
quickly declared that he was Assistant
Secretary of Hacienda, not military man,
and refused to 90. When Walker was
finally captured at Crivas by Commander
Davies, ofSt. Mary's, Rogers was with him.
He was released in San Francisco. The
last heard from him was about S67 or
'6s when old ex-tillibuster told me Rogers
was living somewhere in Southern CalitOr-
MIA in fine style, having made piles Of
money. Nobody in the State knew he was
Kisane and l presume his identity has
been unguessed to this day.
